The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) recognized a need for dramatic improvements to the existing air navigation system. The ICAO Special Committee of Future Air Navigation Systems (FANS) developed a new concept expressed in terms of communication,...
FOREWORD This manual outlines the duties and responsibilities of ICAO Member States with respect to the establishment and management of a national civil aviation security oversight system. It is directed at high-level government decision makers, as it highlights States' obligations as...
PURPOSE. This directive: a. Reissues DoD Directive 5030.19 (Reference (a)). b. Establishes DoD policy and assigns responsibilities under the statutory authorities, Executive orders, and policies relating to Federal Aviation matters cited in Enclosure 2. c. Designates the Under Secretary of...
SCOPE OF THE GASP The GASP is a strategic document that enables States, regions and industry to adopt a flexible, step-by-step approach for safety planning and implementation. In accordance with ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs), States must develop their safety oversight...
INTRODUCTION Note.- The text and paragraph references of the Standards and Recommended Practices quoted in this manual are valid as of the date of publication. As ICAO Annexes are amended frequently, this manual may not always be updated in a timely fashion that keeps pace with the evolution of...
Green Aviation is the first authoritative overview of both engineering and operational measures to mitigate the environmental impact of aviation. It addresses the current status of measures to reduce the environmental impact of air travel. The chapters cover such items as: Engineering...
PURPOSE AND SCOPE This document contains Minimum Aviation System Performance Specification (MASPS) for a Ground Based Augmentation System (GBAS), as part of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), to support Cat I precision approaches and landing, with a...
PURPOSE The GASeP incorporates the key aspects and themes from UNSCR 2309 (2016) and ICAO Assembly Resolution A39-18, in particular: the need for effective, risk-based measures that are assessed regularly to reflect the evolving threat picture; ensuring that measures are effectively implemented on...
This document contains general criteria for the planning, design, and construction of military and commercial ground based aviation fueling facilities that receive, store, distribute, and dispense liquid aviation turbine fuels at airports to both fixed and rotary wing aircraft.
This book seeks to extend the boundaries of aviation psychology in two interrelated ways: by broadening the focus of aviation psychology beyond the flight deck to the whole aviation system; and by discussing new theoretical developments which are shaping this applied...
FOREWORD The Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), at the thirteenth meeting of its 126th Session on 3 March 1989, approved Recommendation 3.211 of the fourth meeting of the Special Committee on Future Air Navigation Systems (FANSl4) concerning the...
This document contains general criteria for the planning, design, and construction of military and commercial ground based aviation fueling facilities that receive, store, distribute, and dispense liquid aviation turbine fuels at airports to both fixed and rotary wing aircraft.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE This document contains the Minimum Aviation System Performance Specifications (MASPS) for an Aeronautical Mobile Airport Communication System (AeroMACS). The purpose of this MASPS is to define the system performance requirements and to outline possible...
INTRODUCTION This document provides an evolutionary concept of operations for the National Airspace System (NAS) in the United States. It is intended to identify the needs and requirements of NAS users and service providers and to serve as the basis for an incremental and a benefits-driven...
Foreword 2020 was an exceptional year for international civil aviation. The COVID-19 pandemic forced unprecedented contractions on global connectivity, most especially pertaining to passenger movements. This led to catastrophic financial implications for many airline and airport operators,...
Most aviation accidents are attributed to human error, pilot error especially. Human error also greatly effects productivity and profitability. In his overview of this collection of papers, the editor points out that these facts are often misinterpreted as evidence of deficiency on the part...
Introduction. This instruction outlines the guidance, process, and rules by which the Combat Air Forces (CAF) Aviation Scheduling Integrated Product Team (SIPT) schedules CAF aviation assets. It includes the Aviation SIPT's role in the development, approval, and maintenance of...
Whereas traditional classroom instruction requires pilots to be pulled 'off the line', a training facility to be maintained and instructors to be compensated, e-learning is extremely cost-effective and therefore an attractive alternative. However, e-learning only saves money if the training is...
